I asked you to think about why a stat might be popular.

You cited an article without personal comment.

I quoted your article back to you.

You refused to acknowledge the citation as a factor in your statistic, but also don't have another argument without that statistic.

You didn't ask me anything? You made a slightly condescending comment.

You quoted something that isn't relevant to my point. But i acknowledge the existence of a flaw in my thinking, in that the fact doesn't say anything about the race of the father.

A statistic isn't popular, it just is. And the meme is dishonest for pretending it doesn't exist.
